You are correct. Actions is not amongst the settable rotor options. Actions is like typing mode. Because it only appears in a few places, actions is automatically added to the rotor when it is available. David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +64 21 2288 288 Sent from

Well it would seem that all of those listed are quite minor. I have to say in my opinion of course, but I really, really think the press is absolutely grasping at anything to cast a negative shadow over the IPhone 5. They really, really seem to try hard to do that. I have heard the new Samsong

So does apps which have been returned mean something like apps which search has found? I don't get what apps which have been returned means? To me, a return is taking something back after it's been purchased. This doesn't seem to fit with AppStore purchases, which can be deleted and a refund
